At The First Fall Of Snow
At The First Fall Of Snow
Composer(s): Lorene Rose
Performer(s): Molly O'Day & the Cumberland Mountain Folks
and multiple other artists
I talked with a stranger so sad and forlorn
His garments were wrinkled, all tattered and town
He told me a story of sorrow and woe
His heart went to Heaven at the first fall of snow
He spoke of his angel, a dear baby girl
He loved every footstep, he loved every curl
But she went to Heaven just one year ago
The angels came for her at the first fall of snow
He still had the dolly that she used to love
He held and caressed it and gazed up above
He whispered, "My darlin', you're waiting I know
I'll bring you your dolly at the first fall of snow"
And there as I listened, my eyes filled with tears
I knew she was part of his happier years
His frail body trembled, he spoke soft and low
"I'll be with my darlin' at the first fall of snow"
I just couldn't tell him how I'd felt inside
I patted his shoulder, my feelings to hide
He smiled as we parted, but he didn't know
That we lost our darling at the first fall of snow

Dois Querer
Dois Querer
Composer(s): Raimundo Fagner - Brandão
Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner
A palavra liga os olhos
Liga o aceno, liga o adeus
A palavra só não liga
Dois querer que são os meus
Um querer é este mundo
Do jeito que se quer ter
Correndo e falando muito
Que é pra muito se ver
Outro querer é ficar
Sem nunca querer de ter
Um dia que se mudar
Por causa de outro querer
Tem muito querer debaixo
Dos pés desses dois querer
Como água no riacho
Barrada pra não correr
Por isso às vezes te abraço
Noutras te quero bater
Mas é melhor o mormaço
Que o céu azul sem chover
Mas é melhor essa vida
Do que viver sem querer

Dois Amigos
Dois Amigos
Composer(s): Zezé Di Camargo
Performer(s): Julio Iglesias
Amigo, eu vim aqui pra te falar
Falar da minha vida pra você
Eu sei que você vai me ajudar
Eu quero um ombro amigo pra chorar
Amigo, estou nas mãos de uma mulher
Você sabe como é, essa história de paixão
Eu preciso de um abraço, alguem pra me conduzir
E, um amigo de verdade não se encontra por aí
E, é por isso amigo, que eu estou aqui
E, é por isso amigo, que eu estou aqui
Amigo, eu também tô indo mal
Parece o mesmo filme: tudo igual
O mesmo que acontece com você
Também estou vivendo por viver
Amigo, também busco uma saída:
Uma luz pra minha vida, um caminho pra seguir
Eu me sinto um passarinho sem ter asas pra voar
Feito rio em correntezas procurando pelo mar
E que bom amigo a gente se encontrar
E é tão bom amigo a gente se encontrar
Chorus
Somos dois apaixonados
Dividindo a mesma dor
Almas gemeas condenadas a morrer de tanto amor
Dois amigos procurando encontrar felicidade
Eu e você
Você e eu
Presos na mesma saudade
Eu e você
Você e eu
Presos na mesma saudade
Amigo, estou nas mãos de uma mulher
Você sabe como é, essa história de paixão
Eu preciso de um abraço, alguem pra me conduzir
E, um amigo de verdade não se encontra por aí
E, é por isso amigo, que eu estou aqui
E, é por isso amigo, que eu estou aqui
Chorus
Somos dois apaixonados
Dividindo a mesma dor
Almas gemeas condenadas a morrer de tanto amor
Dois amigos procurando encontrar felicidade
Eu e você
Você e eu
Presos na mesma saudade

At The End Of The Day (Steve Conway)
At The End Of The Day
Composer(s): Donald O'Keefe
Performer(s): Steve Conway
and multiple other artists
At the end of the day just kneel and say
“Thank you, Lord, for my work and play”
I’ve tried to be good, for I know that I should
That’s a prayer for the end of the day
So when the new dawn begins to break
Just lift up your eyes, let your heart awake
Be ready to meet what the day may send
And be ready to greet every man as a friend
Nobody knows what a power you have found
So do what you can for the others around
Carry them high when they seem to be low
As on your way you go
At the end of the day just kneel and say
“Thank you, Lord, for my work and play”
I’ve tried to be good, for I know that I should
That’s my prayer at the end of the day
At the end of the day just kneel and say
“Thank you, Lord, for my work and play”
I’ve tried to be good, for I know that I should
That’s my prayer at the end of the day

Doing What I Can
Doing What I Can
Composer(s): Lindsey Buckingham
Performer(s): Lindsey Buckingham
Falcon sits
Out on grey rock
Slow death shakes
The ticking of the tock
I go to sleep
Things left undone
I go to sleep now
And fly into the sun
Oh, the sun is bright
But not too bright to see
When the darkness comes
You've got to fly into the light
And what will be will be
Oh, the sun is hot
A man is just a man
When the darkness comes
You're got to do with what you've got
I'm doing what I can
Laughing in my sleep
Dancing on the stone
Waiting here for something
Something I don't know
Deep in the darkness
I go to sleep
I pray the lord
My soul to keep
Oh, the sun is bright
But too bright to see
When the darkness comes
You've got to fly into the light
And what will be will be
Oh, the sun is hot
A man is just a man
When the darkness comes
You're got to do with what you're got
I'm doing what I can

At The End Of The Day (Sandy Denny)
At The End Of The Day
Composer(s): Sandy Denny
First release by: Sandy Denny - 1973
Oh babe you are the one I love
You are the one I'm thinking of
You know it's still a long long way
But I'll be home at the end of the day
I'll sing my songs just for you
And I'll bring my love home to you
I can hardly wait to see your face again
But I'll be home at the end of the day
Just miles and miles of rosy sky
I'll fall asleep by and by
I'm crying now 'cos you're so far away
But I'll be home at the end of the day
Oh babe you are the one I love
You are the one I'm thinking of
So many words I need to say
You'll hear them all at the end of the day
But I'll be home at the end of the day

Doing The Best For You
Doing The Best For You
Composer(s): Dave Davies
Performer(s): Dave Davies
You can blame it on the government
The unions
They use you all you life
You can take system and make believe
It will be alright
They've taken the spirit of your life
And given you a machine
No wonder you feel so hard done by
They're doing the best for you
Well that's what they say
I know what you're going through
You travel alone
The journey is long
With only a name
In search of a song
You can blame it on the Catholics
The Jews
The Blacks
And the Whites
You can take any doctrine and surely waste
Another life
Any way that you want it to be
By popular demand
Any way but the way it should be
They're doing the best for you
Well that's what they say
I know what you're going through
You travel alone
The journey is long
With only a name
In search of a home
The world is ruled by science and money
That's all that exists
How much longer must we live and die
For this
They're doing the best for you
Well that's what they say
I know what you're going through
You travel alone
The journey is long
With only a name
In search of a song
Doing the best for you
Doing the best for you
Doing the best for you
You travel alone
The journey is long
From where do you come
To where do you go

At Sundown
At Sundown
Performer(s): Frank Sinatra
Sunbeams are gently fading, slowly fading
And birds are waiting to do their mating
When eventide is nigh, moonbeams are descending
The day is ending, a happy ending
The sun is sinking below the western sky
Every little breeze is sighing of love at sundown
Every little bird is resting and feather nesting at sundown
Each little rosebud is sleeping, while shadows are creeping
In a little cottage cozy the world seems rosy at sundown
Where a loving smile will greet me and always meet me at sundown
I seem to sigh, I'm in heaven
When night is falling and love is calling me home
Daydreams through fields of clover, will soon be over
And happy hours 'mid sunny flowers will wait another day
Sweet dreams have just begun, dear, the day is done, dear
When skies grow dimmer
And stars will glimmer along the starlit way
Every little breeze is sighing of love at sundown
Every little bird is resting and feather nesting at sundown
Each little rosebud is sleeping, while shadows are creeping
In a little cottage cozy the world seems rosy at sundown
Where a loving smile will greet me and always meet me at sundown
I seem to sigh, I'm in heaven
When night is falling and love is calling me home

Doing That Scrapyard Thing
Doing That Scrapyard Thing
Composer(s): Jack Bruce - Pete Brown
Performer(s): Cream
When I was young they gave me a mongrel piano
Spent all my time inventing the cup of tea
Writing your name in the sea
Banging my favorite head
Missing the last bed, waving the cheery herring
Balancing brass bands on the tip of my toe
Phoning your home from a tree
Drinking my favorite loch
When I was old they gave me a model factory
I met three salads out on the motorway
Leaving your name at the door
Breaking my favorite egg
Missing the walrus, sharing my last banana
Balancing zeppelins on the end of my nose
Calling your name in the zoo
Blowing my favorite mind

(At) The End (Of A Rainbow)
(At) The End (Of A Rainbow)
Composer(s): Sid Jacobson - Jimmy Krondes
Performer(s): Earl Grant
At the end of a rainbow, you'll find a pot of gold
At the end of a story, you'll find it's all been told
But our love has a treasure our hearts can always spend
And it has a story without any end
At the end of a river, the water stops its flow
At the end of a highway, there's no place you can go
But just tell me you love and you are only mine
And our love will go on till the end of time
At the end of a river, the water stops its flow
At the end of a highway, there's no place you can go
But just tell me you love and you are only mine
And our love will go on till the e-end of time
Till the end of time

Doin' What Comes Natur'lly
Doin' What Comes Natur'lly
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
First performance by: Ethel Merman & Art Barnett - 1946
Folks are dumb where I come from
They ain't had any learning
Still they're happy as can be
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally)
Folks like us could never fuss
With schools and books and learning
Still we've gone from A to Z
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally)
You don't have to know how to read or write
When you're out with a feller in the pale moonlight
You don't have to look in a book to find out
What he thinks of the moon and what is on his mind
That comes naturally (that comes naturally)
My uncle out in Texas can't even write his name
He signs his checks with "x's"
But they cash them just the same
If you saw my pa and ma
You'd know they had no learning
Still they've raised a family
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally)
Cousin Jack has never read an almanac on drinking
Still he's always on the spree
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally)
Sister Sal who's musical has never had a lesson
Still she's learned to sing off-key
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally)
You don't have to go a private school
Not to pick up a penny near a stubborn mule
You don't have to have a professor's dome
Not to go for the honey when the bee's not home
That comes naturally (that comes naturally)
My tiny baby brother, who's never read a book
Knows one sex from the other
All he had to do was look
Grandpa Bill is on the hill
With someone he just married
There he is at ninety-three
Doin' what comes naturally (doin' what comes naturally)

The Dark End Of The Street

Composer(s): Chips Moman - Dan Penn
First release by: James Carr - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists
At the dark end of the street
That's where we always meet
Hiding in shadows where we don't belong
Living in darkness to hide our wrong
You and me at the dark end of the street
You and me
I know time is gonna take its toll
We have to pay for the love we stole
It's a sin and we know it's wrong
But our love keeps coming on strong
Tonight we'll meet at the dark end of the street
You and me
They're gonna find us, oh, they'll find us
They're gonna find us, they're gonna find us
Oooooh, some day
You and me at the dark end of the street
You and me
And when the daylight hour rolls around
And by chance we're both downtown
If we should meet, just walk on by
Ooooh darling, please don't you cry
Tonight we'll meet at the dark end of the street
You and me

and multiple other artists
Listen good folks
It isn't alcohol
No yaller gal at all
Thrill me, thrill me with the pep I've got!
I got a pair of feet that have found that lowdown beat
Lowdown, down around, the spot that's hot
Have no peace losing' my lease on livin'
Here's the how, I'm tellin' you now, to givin'
Make 'em play that crazy thing again
I've got to do that lazy swing again
Hi-ho, doin' the new lowdown!
Got my feet to misbehaving now
Got a soul that's not for saving now
Hi-ho, doin' the new lowdown!
That dancin' demon, he has my feet in a trance
'Cause when I'm dreamin', folks, I go right into that dance!
Once you hear that haunting strain to it
I'll bet my life you'll go insane to it
Hi-ho, doin' the new lowdown!
Hi-ho, doin' the new lowdown!

Feel the heat tonight
Everything so right

Let yourself go free
Come along with me

I'll be yours and you'll be mine
Let's stay here forever

Feel you close to me
Now I know just how
Love's supposed to be

Performer(s): Gary Lewis & the Playboys
(Flake, flake, do the flake, do the flake, flake, flake)
Everybody from miles around
Comes out dancin' when they hear this sound
Crazy new dance that's the top of the town
It's the flake
You get Peggy & I'll get Sue
We'll head on down to Malibu
All our friends will be there too
Doin' the flake
Surf, sand, sun & fun
Makes the day at Malibu Run
Stop, listen when you hear that beat
It's easy to do, just move your feet
Shootin' the curl till the surf's all gone
Dance in the sand with your baggies on
Grab yourself a chick & swing along
To the flake

At The Crossroads
At The Crossroads
Composer(s): Doug Sahm
First release by: Sir Douglas Quintet - 1969
Leaving me girl and moving on down the road
You left me many burdens such a heavy load
And it sure does bring me out when I think about what went down
Well the crossroads all my life it has been
And I'm so afraid but now I'm trying to see
I just rode on through life till I took the time to concentrate on you
Well you can preached me like a lesson
You can bring me a lot of gold
But you just can't live in Texas
If you don't have a lot of soul
I'm leaving here tonight for the very last time
Yes I'm leaving you babe 'cause now I know that you ain't mine
And where you're living now you'll find out and how that you never had a friend
Well you can preached me like a lesson
You can bring me a lot of gold
But you just can't live in Texas
If you don't have a lot of soul
Well I'm leaving here tonight for the very last time
Yes I'm leaving you girl 'cause now I know that you ain't mine
Some day a change will come and you'll be there beside me one more time
One more time
Yeah!
And you'll be there beside me
One more time
Yes you'll be there beside me
One more time

Dogs
Dogs
Composer(s): David Gilmour - Roger Waters
First release by: Pink Floyd - 1977
You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need
You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street
You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed
And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight
You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking
And after a while, you can work on points for style
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake
A certain look in the eye, and an easy smile
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to
So that when they turn their backs on you
You'll get the chance to put the knife in
You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder
You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older
And in the end you'll pack, fly down south
Hide your head in the sand
Just another sad old man
All alone and dying of cancer
And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest that you've sown
And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone
And it's too late to loose the weight you used to need to throw around
So have a good drown, as you go down alone
Dragged down by the stone
I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake of this creeping malaise
If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze?
Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending
That everyone's expendable and no-one had a real friend
And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner
And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer
Who was born in a house full of pain
Who was trained not to spit in the fan
Who was told what to do by the man
Who was broken by trained personnel
Who was fitted with collar and chain
Who was given a seat in the stand
Who was breaking away from the pack
Who was only a stranger at home
Who was ground down in the end
Who was found dead on the phone
Who was dragged down by the stone
